Arch Linux

Description: minilogd don't log some messages

For example:
$ strace logger hola
...
connect(1, {sa_family=AF_FILE, path="/dev/log"...}, 110) = 0
send(1, "<13>Mar 9 17:28:05 root: hola\0"..., 31, MSG_NOSIGNAL) = -1 EPIPE (Broken pipe)
close(1) = 0
...

This is because in accept() addrlen should be initialized (see accept(2) manpage): "The addrlen argument is a value-result argument: the caller must initialize it to contain the size (in bytes) of the structure pointed to by addr; on return it will contain the actual size of the peer address."

Patching fixed it:
$strace logger hola
...
connect(1, {sa_family=AF_FILE, path="/dev/log"...}, 110) = 0
send(1, "<13>Mar 9 18:46:35 root: hola\0"..., 31, MSG_NOSIGNAL) = 31
close(1) = 0
...

And now, when start syslog-ng, msg appears on logs ;)
Mar 9 18:46:35 arch32 root: hola

Also init pointer *message to NULL.
